During the brief interview, Thornton talked about why he decided to take on the project (he gives a really honest answer), did he just work as an actor or did he help out with any of the writing, and we talked about his next writing-directing project Jayne Mansfield’s Car.

Finally, before watching the interview, you can check out some clips from Faster here. If the idea of Dwayne Johnson going around killing people sounds like a good movie, you should definitely check it out this weekend.
